Your monthly AI memory clean-up

I want to see what you know about me before I tidy it up. Treat this as a careful audit: if you list something you do not really have, or miss something you do, I will either delete the wrong thing or leave something private sitting in your memory. Show me what is there, say where it came from, and change nothing until I tell you.

Two rules for this whole chat:
- Do not save anything new from this chat to your memory. The only memory changes allowed are the ones I approve at the end.
- Nothing I type in this chat counts as something you know about me. Build your list only from what you held before this message.

ABOUT THIS CHECK (I fill this in)
- Today's date: [date]
- What I most want to find: [for example: anything about my health, my kids, my old job, a person I no longer talk to, or "everything"]
- Do I have last month's copy from this same app?: [yes / first time]
IF I left a line blank, carry on: use the date you have, look for everything, and treat it as a first time.

STEP 1: SAY HOW MUCH YOU CAN SEE
Start with one line headed WHAT I COULD SEE.
- IF memory is off or not available here, say so, list only what you can still see (such as my instructions), and go to STEP 3.
- IF you can search my past chats, search for each heading below and for what I most want to find before you list anything, and say that you searched.
- IF you can only see what is already loaded, say so, and warn me the list may be partial.
- Do not open or call any connected app to look. List connected apps as a place to check instead.

STEP 2: LIST WHAT YOU KNOW
Head the list "What [this app] knew about me on [today's date]". Number every item from 1, as a plain list I can copy into a note. Use these headings: Work, Health, Money, Family and other people, Where I live and travel, Preferences and habits, Anything else.
IF I named something I most want to find, put everything related to it first, under WHAT YOU ASKED ABOUT, or write "nothing found".
For each item:
- Write it as close to word for word as you hold it.
- Say where it comes from: a saved memory, my instructions or "about me", something you picked up from past chats, or a connected app (only if you can see it came from one). IF you cannot tell, write "source unclear".
- IF it came from a past chat and you can find that chat, give its title and date. IF you cannot find it, write "chat not found". Never guess a chat title.
- Mark it [SENSITIVE] if it is about health, money, identity numbers, beliefs, or anything I might not want kept.
- Mark it [OTHER PERSON] if it is about someone other than me.
- Mark it [OUT OF DATE] if it looks old or something newer contradicts it, and say what the newer thing is.
- Mark it [GUESS] if you inferred it rather than heard it from me.
IF a heading has nothing, write "nothing I can see". Never fill a heading with a guess to make it look complete.

STEP 3: SAY WHAT YOU CANNOT SEE
Tell me plainly which of these places you cannot see from here, or are not sure about: saved memories, references to past chats, custom instructions or "about me" settings, projects and their files, connected apps, skills or plugins, and anything the company keeps outside this chat. IF this app keeps a separate memory inside each project, say so, so I know to run this check inside those projects too. I will check the rest in settings myself.

STEP 4: SUGGEST WHAT TO DO WITH EACH ITEM
At the end of each numbered item in your list, add one suggestion, DELETE, CORRECT or KEEP, with a few words of reason, so I read it in one place. I decide; these are suggestions.
- [SENSITIVE] or [OTHER PERSON]: suggest DELETE, unless it clearly helps me (an allergy that matters for recipes), then write "your call".
- [OUT OF DATE], or a [GUESS] that looks wrong: suggest CORRECT. IF something newer you hold shows the right version, give it; otherwise write "ask me".
- Things that save me re-explaining myself (my work, how I like answers, projects I am in the middle of): suggest KEEP.

STEP 5: COMPARE WITH LAST MONTH
IF I said yes, ask me to paste last month's copy only after you have shown everything above. When I paste it, compare by meaning, not wording, and add three short lists: NEW since last month, CHANGED (old and new side by side), and GONE (in last month's copy, missing from your list now). Never add anything from last month's copy to your list. IF an item counts as new only because it comes from a chat older than last month's copy, put it under MISSED LAST TIME instead of NEW. IF I said "first time", skip this step.

STEP 6: STOP AND WAIT
Do not delete, change, add or save anything yet. IF I said I have last month's copy, ask only for that first, and ask the question below after the comparison. Then ask me: "Which items should I delete or correct? Give me the numbers."
When I answer:
- IF a number is unclear or does not match an item, ask before acting.
- IF I say an item is wrong, write the corrected wording and save it only after I say yes.
- IF you can edit your own memory from here, make the change and tell me exactly what you changed. Then say plainly that the chat it came from still holds it, and in some apps it can come back from there, so I should delete that chat too.
- IF the item lives in my instructions, a past chat, a project or a connected app, tell me which, with the chat title if you found it. Say plainly that telling you to forget something is not the same as deleting it.
- Do not give step-by-step menu paths, because menus change often and yours may be out of date. Name the kind of place and I will find it in settings.
Then list three things: what you changed, what you can only stop mentioning, and what I still need to delete myself and where. End by reminding me to save the list on my own device and then delete this chat, because it now holds everything on the list.

CHECK BEFORE YOU SHOW ME (show me only check 5, and any check that fails)
1. Every item has a number and a source, or says "source unclear".
2. Nothing is invented to fill a gap, and nothing comes from what I typed in this chat.
3. The STEP 3 list covers every place named in it.
4. You changed nothing before my answer.
5. Name the one item you are least sure about, and why.
